There is not, only a description. Alvama drew John Watson's battleship Stalin with only a description so I remain hopeful that I will see Yonaga one day.

I've seen a few hypothetical drawings of her...one had Akagi's hull and hangar with Shinano's island on the port side. Weird.

As promised, I re-uploaded the drawing of Tsushima, with all four aircraft types.

Probably because that artist is very, very lazy.

It was the late Craig Burke, Admiral Furashita, who created the picture of Yonaga based on a combination of Shinano and Akagi.

The original novel just had a silhouette of Midway encased in an iceberg and later books in the series seemed to use images of existing carriers. Haven't read the book since the premise seems rather silly.

Not to mention, wouldn't an island of that size have put the ship seriously off-balance?

The model lacks an offset flight deck which would be the ideal solution, still the Japanese naval architects would have been no strangers to stability issues

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Indeed, but if they can construct bridge pagodas like those of Fuso and Yamashiro and have them stay upright, then they probably could've overcome anything!

The Ryujo creeps into mind as well, how that thing stayed upright in a blow must have been partly a miracle that no freak waves hit her beam on

I'm going to further add that what Adm. Furashita did was a little more complex than a simple shop job. He at least knew a little bit what he was doing.
